Criticism of the project for a united Europe is growing. The crisis of the euro coincided with the rise of euro-critical and right-wing populist parties. Instead of European solidarity, observers speak of renationalization in times of crisis. What are the geographical boundaries of Europe? How can the democratic deficit of the European Union be overcome? How can Europe compete economically with other regions of the world? These and other questions are discussed by political scientist Gesine Schwan, Austrian writer Robert Menasse, and sociologist Hauke Brunkhorst. The interviews are introduced with a foreword by Wolfgang Schäuble.
